Clad in durable Mk X Gravis armor and wielding powerful melta weaponry, they are a terrifying force on the battlefield.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eRole and Specialization:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eEradicators are essentially anti-tank and anti-heavy infantry specialists. Their entire doctrine revolves around getting close to the most heavily armored enemy assets – be it vehicles, tanks, Imperial Knights, or even lighter Titans – and reducing them to slag with concentrated melta fire. Their signature ability, \"Total Obliteration,\" allows a stationary unit to shoot twice at a single target, delivering an unparalleled torrent of destructive energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eKey Characteristics:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMk X Gravis Armor:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eEradicators wear the bulky and resilient Mk X Gravis armor, providing them with enhanced toughness (Toughness 5), multiple wounds per model (3 wounds), and a strong armor save (3+).

This often necessitates transporting them in dedicated transports like Impulsors or Repulsors, or utilizing Strategic Reserves to position them optimally within the crucial half-range (under 12 inches) of their melta weapons for maximum effect.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLimited Melee:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eWhile they possess a basic melee capability (benefiting from Shock Assault for an extra hit on the charge), with about 10 attacks total in a squad, it's sufficient against light infantry but is not their primary focus or strength.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eTactical Use and Chapter Synergies:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cspan\u003e \u003c\/span\u003eEradicators are powerful units that can fit into most Space Marine Chapters due to their raw destructive output.
